Ahhhhh....incest, a game for the whole family.

You do have to wonder if this law is superfluous to requirements, the avoidance of incest happens naturally in all but a very tiny number of people, some of which wouldn't let what the law says affect them anyway (if its consentual its very hard to detect, unless offspring are produced).
Get your coat, i think you left in 1955 along with that joke
(i did lol tho )
And the thing is, the argument about the possibility of producing defomed offspring is nullified in the case of homosexual incest. Which as far as I know is also illegal.

Well yes but what about when they are both adults? This case is interesting because it's borderline. He was only just a legal adult. Generally speaking when someone is over 18 they are considered mature enough to make their own decisions. Of course he probably wasn't, but what if he was 25, 30, etc?Nullified in that instance, yes, however I don't even think that is the primary objection now (aside from the ick factor). One of the major issues is that doesn't alter the potential for there to have been undue influence placed on the son/daughter by the parent/guardian even as a sophisticated form of 'grooming' and that counts as a breach of trust and a gross dereliction of the duty of care that is owed to the child.

And then there's the case of sibling incest. If they are similar ages it's even less likely one has been "grooming" the other.
I was just listening to Lethal Bizzle - POW! and was at the point when it said "***** you can suck your mum" as I clicked this link.
Haha good point. I too would question someone's sanity if they wanted to sleep with their mum.I'd still be dubious about the mental capacity of anyone who thought that "hey, y'know I really want to sleep with my parent" but that is simply down to where I draw the line.
So if she fell pregnant after this would the child call her mummy or granny?
Hey, if they want to who are we to stop them?
I really don't see a problem with this - im not saying that i'd even come close to doing that, nor do I agree with it... but it really up to us to say what they can and cant do (specially if it doesnt even affect us).
